[j-nsp] MX80 ports not recognized?

[Per Granath]

http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.2/topics/concept/junos-license-key-components.html

"Starting with Junos OS Release 12.2, license keys are available to enhance the port capacity on MX5, MX10, and MX40 routers up to the port capacity of an MX80 router.

"... the Junos OS licensing infrastructure allows the use of restricted ports without a license for a grace period of 30 days. After the grace period expires, the router reverts back to the base capacity if no upgrade license is purchased and installed for the locked ports."

Has Juniper started to enforce the port restrictions for the MX5-80 in recent releases?
